Hamilton no more
The ordeal is over. Judge Baum has rejected the Balsillie bid saying the issues are to complicated to deal with by the June 29 deadline.

good. hopefully a second chance will be good for the Coyotes and their fans. There might be few of them, but they are die hards and doing it a place without the wall to wall coverage we are blessed with. Bettman and the league should look long and hard through at giving Balsille an expansion team, he’s a deep pocketed gift horse staring them right in the mouth!

I’m happy for Odin and the other ‘Yotes fans that they get another shot. I’m still skeptical about the long term future of the club but a little success may be all they need to turn it around.

Time will tell, I think the potential is there and a winner will bring the fans out more than they come out now. Bandwagonning is a popular topic on here today (most days) and I think you are right, a little success might bring out Odin’s civic cousins and drive some interest.

Same. It’ll be a real shame if in the end the Coyotes move to Vegas or some other silly place like that anyway. But, I can see it happening.

The court did not approve either our approach or the NHL’s. Judge Baum did state he does not have time to decide all the relocation issues. But the court still controls the sale process. As a result, we look forward to hearing from the NHL soon on its view of our relocation application and an appropriate relocation fee, so as to allow the court to determine if that fee is reasonable. We still think there is enough time for the NHL to approve Mr. Balsillie’s application and move the team to Hamilton by September.

I went to this place in Phoenix for dinner called Oregano’s, I think, and had the best fuckin meatball grinder I’ve ever had.
